The beginning

Matt and I found out we were expecting in November 2013 (YAY)!  This is our first and we have no idea what to expect or what we are doing/should be doing. We had an 8 week check-up, which turned out to actually be 7 weeks, and heard the heart beat.  I cried and Matt was in awe. We were not expecting to hear it so soon.  The doctor told us we are due August 4 2014, so we are anxiously counting down the weeks.
We told our families the exciting news at Christmas and EVERYONE is ecstatic. I think my brother Casey's reaction was the best.
Fast forward to January 21, the 12 week appointment. We were nervous to find out if everything has been going well.  I have been feeling well, no sickness, throughout the pregnancy so it was difficult to tell if I was still pregnant. Thankfully the appointment went well and we got to see our growing baby and hear the heartbeat again. 4 more weeks until the next check-up!
